Once the mildew stains have been removed the smell of white wine vinegar will linger for several days so make sure your vinyl is placed in a well ventilated area. With the vinegar already breaking up the mould the water and detergent should flush it away completely. Once it s dry rub it with vinyl top conditioner. It is a very simple task and can easily be completed in less than a day.

The best product to remove mould from a fabric convertible top is renovo s fabric soft top cleaner. Dampen your erasing cleaning pad generally used to clean bathrooms and kitchens and use it to wipe away. A sponge or washcloth will easily be able to handle the task of wiping the vinyl clean. Once you have painted the cleaner onto the top leave it for an hour to absorb into the fibres of the material.

You should first paint the fabric soft top cleaner onto the entire hood with a new clean 5cm paintbrush. Spray your top down with a water hose and allow it to dry. If mould remains wash the convertible top with warm water and a mild washing up liquid. Scrub the mould away with a damp scrubbing sponge or a soft scrubbing brush.

Most mildew stains will come off with a mixture of water and a mild nonabrasive detergent.
